Timeless

Time is the hammer of the gods

Pounding out the meter of our lives with unrelenting hate

We hear their laughter as we try to forestall our fate

Time is money, but nothing is time but time.

The currency in which we cannot trade

It’s effects we attempt to evade

Each grain of sand is a moment of now and then

The hourglass drops them over and over and over again.

Don’t watch them fall, avert your eyes

Our disregard for it they do despise

When we live in the moment

We cause them torment

Their lightning bolts are chimes of the clock

They torture us with every tick and every tock

Making us worry about tomorrow

Is their way of bringing us sorrow

Living for this moment is our Valhalla
